Definitions

  • Liquefied natural gas also known as “liquefied natural gas” or “LNG” for short, is natural gas that has been cooled to a temperature of at least -160 °C and that assumes a liquid state at these low temperatures.
  • LNG liquefied natural gas
  • the publication WO2009/112479A1 discloses a piston compressor for providing natural gas fuel, wherein this natural gas fuel is obtained by compressing the evaporation gas released from the liquid natural gas using the piston compressor.
  • Such a piston compressor which is very well-proven in itself, allows the evaporation gas of the liquid natural gas, which usually has a temperature of about -160 ° C at a pressure of usually 1 bar, to be compressed to a preferably variable final pressure in the range between 100 bar and 500 bar, preferably to a final pressure in the range between 210 bar and 350 bar.
  • a piston compressor has the advantage that natural gas can be sucked in and then compressed in a wide temperature range of preferably between -160 ° C and + 100 ° C.
  • Such a piston compressor is, for example, capable of to compress an input fluid having a temperature of -160 °C to a compressed fluid having a temperature of -40 °C.
  • DE 11 08 846 B describes a compressor in which the working piston, designed as a plunger piston, is guided in a bushing by a guide piston attached directly to it, or in which the working piston, designed as a plunger piston or disc piston, has sealing rings at the upper and lower ends, characterized in that discharge channels with outlet openings are arranged in the cylinder in such a way that the discharge channels are not overlapped by the upper edge and lower edge of the working piston or by the piston rings of the working piston during the stroke of the latter.
  • a cost-effective piston compressor in particular a labyrinth piston compressor, which is suitable for compressing a fluid that has a high temperature difference between the input fluid and the output fluid.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a piston compressor which, despite a high temperature difference between inlet and outlet, is suitable for compressing a fluid and which is economically advantageous.
  • a labyrinth piston compressor comprising a cylinder, a piston arranged in the cylinder and a piston rod, wherein the piston rod extends in a longitudinal direction and is connected to the piston, and wherein the piston is movable back and forth in the longitudinal direction within the cylinder, wherein the cylinder comprises a first cylinder cover, wherein an inlet valve and an outlet valve are arranged in the first cylinder cover, and wherein the inlet valve and the outlet valve are arranged symmetrically and inclined with respect to a plane of symmetry running longitudinally along the piston rod.
  • a labyrinth piston compressor comprises a piston and a cylinder, with a labyrinth seal being formed on at least the piston and the cylinder wall of the cylinder.
  • the labyrinth seal is a contact-free seal.
  • the sealing effect is based on the extension of the flow path through the gap to be sealed, which significantly increases the flow resistance.
  • the path extension is achieved by a surface structure of the piston and possibly also of the cylinder wall.
  • the surface of the piston preferably has a large number of circumferential depressions that are spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction of the piston. Absolute tightness is not possible with this contact-free design.
  • the labyrinth piston compressor comprising the labyrinth seal has the advantage that the labyrinth seal is contactless because the piston and the cylinder wall do not touch one another, and that therefore no lubrication is required between the piston and the cylinder wall.
  • Such a labyrinth piston compressor allows what is known as oil-free compression of a fluid because no lubricant, in particular no oil, is required to compress the fluid.
  • the piston of such a labyrinth piston compressor has no sealing rings because the labyrinth seal creates a seal.
  • the labyrinth piston compressor according to the invention has the advantage that it can be operated safely even if the temperature of the fluid to be sucked in and the temperature of the compressed fluid to be discharged have a large temperature difference of, for example, 100°C to 120°C or even more.
  • the piston compressor according to the invention is designed in such a way that the applied temperature differences do not result in any significant thermal stresses or any significant distortion of components of the piston compressor, or that the piston compressor is designed in such a way that an expansion of components caused by the applied temperature difference of the piston compressor is carried out in such a way that the individual components are hardly displaced relative to one another due to the temperature difference, which is particularly important for a labyrinth piston compressor, since the gap between the outer peripheral surface of the labyrinth piston and the inner surface of the cylinder facing the outer peripheral surface is particularly small.
  • the labyrinth piston compressor according to the invention can preferably be operated safely and reliably regardless of the temperature differences present.
  • the piston compressor according to the invention has the advantage that the at least one inlet valve and the at least one outlet valve are arranged in the cylinder cover, which results in the advantage that a fluid to be compressed flows directly into the cylinder interior after flowing through the inlet valve, or that a compressed fluid immediately leaves the cylinder interior when flowing through the outlet valve, so that the piston compressor has an extremely small or no dead space within which a temperature transfer between the fluid and the piston compressor could take place, so that the piston compressor has relatively few contact surfaces that could exchange heat with the fluid.
  • the piston compressor according to the invention thus preferably has, with the exception of the mandatory contact surfaces for the inflow of the fluid to be compressed, the compression of the fluid to be compressed and the discharge of the compressed fluid, preferably negligibly small or no additional contact surfaces and contact points between the piston compressor and the conveyed fluid, which limits heat transfer between the fluid and the piston compressor.
  • the cylinder and/or the piston of the piston compressor advantageously consists of a metal with a thermal conductivity in the range between 100 and 300 (W/m ⁇ K), preferably of aluminum or an aluminum alloy.
  • the relatively high thermal conductivity has The result is that during operation of the piston compressor, a temperature equilibrium is established in its components, the temperature differences of which are significantly smaller than the temperature differences between the inflowing and the compressed, outflowing fluid. It is particularly advantageous if the cylinder and the piston are made of the same material.
  • the inlet valve and the outlet valve are also arranged symmetrically in the cylinder with respect to a plane of symmetry running along a center line of the cylinder. This means that during operation of the piston compressor, an average temperature will be established in the area of the plane of symmetry, which lies between the temperature of the inflowing fluid and the temperature of the outflowing fluid, which reduces the maximum possible temperature differences that occur in the cylinder.
  • a flange or hose arranged at the inlet valve or outlet valve, which serve to supply or discharge the fluid has a small contact area with respect to the cylinder, which in turn reduces heat transfer between the flange or hose and the cylinder.
  • the piston compressor comprises a carrier housing in which a crankshaft and at least one crosshead are preferably arranged.
  • the piston compressor according to the invention comprises a spacer which is connected to the carrier housing and the cylinder in order to hold the cylinder in a defined position with respect to the carrier housing and to reduce any possible temperature flow between the cylinder and the carrier housing.
  • the spacer is connected to the cylinder in those areas where the average temperature or essentially the average temperature is present.
  • the temperature at the cylinder during operation of the piston compressor is The temperature differences occurring between the cylinder and the support housing in the spacer are kept within limits, with the spacer preferably being arranged in such a way that it has a heat distribution that is symmetrical to the plane of symmetry, with the result that little or no distortion of the spacer occurs due to the temperatures applied to the spacer.
  • the piston rod running between the support housing and the cylinder therefore also does not experience any deformation.
  • the cylinder and/or the piston are made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy, a metal that is therefore a very good heat conductor.
  • the very good heat conduction in turn has the advantage that during continuous operation of the piston compressor, an average temperature or an average operating temperature of the individual components of the compressor is established very quickly, thus avoiding temperature peaks.
  • the piston compressor according to the invention has the advantage that, in a preferred embodiment, it requires relatively few parts and that the moving parts can be selected to be relatively low in mass. This also results in the advantage that the piston compressor according to the invention can be operated at a high speed of, for example, up to 1800 revolutions per minute.

  • the cylinder 10 and the piston 20 are designed to be single-acting, for example by arranging an inlet valve 90 and an outlet valve 91 in only the first cylinder cover 11.
  • the cylinder 10 and the piston 20 are particularly advantageous, as shown in Figure 2 shown, double-acting, with a first cylinder interior 10a, a second cylinder interior 10b and two inlet valves 90 and two outlet valves 91.

  • Figure 3 shows a detailed view of an embodiment for increasing the thermal resistance.
  • the outlet valve 91 does not lie on the first cylinder cover 11 over its entire surface, but only partially over the partial surfaces 91a, which increases the thermal resistance between the outlet valve 91 and the first cylinder cover 11.
